The available varieties of Olive Oils have the following characteristics and differences: The first one, Agourelaion (Early Harvest), is marked with the exceptional merit, that it is extruded from early harvested olives which renders a lime-cloudy color and a fruitier, almond-y taste and - from ancient to modern times - is considered the creme-de-la-creme of Olive oils, It comes from a selected area in northern Pe , as early harvested olives produce less juice.
The second one, Coronelaion, is another high class Olive oil coming from an area nearby the ancient city of Sparta in southern Peloponnesus. It has a distinctive fruity aroma, green color, balanced taste somewhere between sweet and bitter and it comes with a surprisingly long duration of aftertaste.
It is of similar quality and purity with Agourelaion , with its main difference being its better availability due to its nature (it is not early harvested). Extra Virgin Olive Oil can also be bottled in different shapes and sizes.
